Rolled 1, 6, 6, 5, 3, 2, 4, 3, 2, 3, 2, 2, 6, 2, 3, 6, 3, 5 = 64 (18d6)

Rolling..

What's this based on?

13 STR
10 DEX
9 CON
7 INT
11 WIS
14 CHA

A low-life thug. Slow on the uptake but with a strong force of personality. Works for the thieves guild as an enforcer.

Rolled 4, 2, 4, 4, 1, 4, 3, 5, 6, 6, 4, 4, 3, 4, 4, 2, 2, 2 = 64 (18d6)

Rollan anyhow

We can be wizard bros. Stick and Thick, or Sticc and Thicc

Hey, I want in too

boy wizards or girl wizards?
this is extremely important

Sounds like a plan

Welcome aboard, we can be the Three Magiteers or something!

I'll be a cleric, I guess.

My DM always taught me that you were born before you chose what to do.
by that logic you should pick race first though

Rolled 5, 1, 3, 4, 4, 6, 5, 3, 3, 5, 3, 4, 5, 1, 2, 6, 5, 3 = 68 (18d6)

Y'know, I'm really feeling gnomish bard on this one. I'd like to play a concertina.

Some classes have stat minimums so you have to roll first. But if you have a random race chart I can roll on that.

girl (male) is best girl

Races also have stat minimums.

Races have stat modifiers

They have both. In the book I'm looking at (2e, where this method of rolling is known as method I), you literally cannot be an elf unless you have Dex at 6 or better, con at 7 or better, and int and charisma at 8 or better. If you meet all the requirements, you get +1 Dex and -1 con.

Fair enough, and even more reason to roll first.

Rolled 4, 3, 5, 5, 1, 2, 1, 4, 4, 5, 6, 4, 2, 4, 2, 4, 2, 1 = 59 (18d6)

Sure, I'll roll.

Rolled 3, 2, 4, 5, 2, 4, 6, 5, 5, 4, 5, 1, 4, 5, 6, 3, 5, 5 = 74 (18d6)

I'm not sure if I make the cutoff for bard, so I might be some sort of face wizard?

I guess this makes me Magic User king.

If this were the result of my rolls in 2e, I'd be cheering and playing this dude without regrets or looking back. It's certainly better than a lot of my 3d6 or 4d6droplowest results. Goddamn I hate the "you gotta have 18 prime requisite and only one under 10" mentality.

Rolled 5, 3, 1, 3, 6, 5, 1, 6, 1, 1, 1, 1, 4, 1, 5, 4, 4, 6 = 58 (18d6)

>INT 3

Reminds me of the most powerful character to ever grace the lost lands making it all the way to level 17, who only had one stat greater than an 11.

Hell, we have enough wizards we could probably make a wizard college. You up for Headmaster?

dice+18d6

In 2e, rolls mattered less than the paper the sheets were printed on (assuming you didn't just write it down on lined paper). You could play most classes if you had at least a 9 in the requisite stats and you didn't even get a modifier until you reached 16+.

In 3.PF onwards, stats matter far more and the game assumes that you have at least a 16 in your primary stat(s) at character creation, which is generally why rolling for stats lost popularity and more people started using point buys or standard arrays.

Rolling "3d6" 6 times

1: 3 + 3 + 4 = 10 Str
2: 3 + 6 + 5 = 14 Dex
3: 5 + 3 + 6 = 14 Con
4: 1 + 6 + 5 = 12 Int
5: 1 + 5 + 3 = 9 Wis
6: 6 + 6 + 2 = 14 Cha

I'm a bard. I travel around performing song, sightseeing carefree, my home be in tavern, on stage, or just under the stars. Always low on coin, and my services to a party come and go like the rhythm of my tune. What the future holds for me is unclear, but my concern for this is as empty as the bottom of my flagon of ale.

Rolled 1, 5, 3, 5, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 1, 2, 4, 4, 1, 3, 2, 5, 6 = 58 (18d6)

Until you took stat damage, user. You're right though, a lot of game rules boiled down similar to 13+:
+1, 0: 0. 8-: -1

Rolled 3, 5, 6, 6, 4, 5, 6, 6, 3, 4, 2, 5, 5, 4, 5, 3, 1, 2 = 75 (18d6)

give it a shot.

oi, ye japer, imma come deck yu in the mouth if ydont shaddap and get back t'haulin the hay off this cart.

Thanks for doing my math for me. That's pretty good, too.

Aye, I know, two of the three systems I've played the most are AD&D and Runequest, and it's almost hilarious when you compare the importance of stats between them. As a matter of fact, I'm gonna have to do a Runequest char as well.

Being fat penalizes everything, especially CON

Rolled 1, 1, 6, 5, 4, 3, 1, 6, 2, 1, 2, 5, 2, 6, 3, 4, 6, 2, 6, 3, 5 = 74 (21d6)

Rolling for great justice and Runequest Avalon Hill.

Personally I have players just roll d20 for their stats, assign them however they prefer and adjust the campaign around their rolls.

I don't like point buy systems after playing too many classic Bioware CRPGs. Seeing a fighter with 16 str, 12 dex, 16 con, 10 int, 10 wis, 10 cha for the dozenth time gets tiresome for me.

Seriously I'm open to suggestions
Can I even survive going outside with 6 CON?
Can I even open a door properly with 5 DEX?
Will anyone even talk to me with 8 CHA?

>Personally I have players just roll d20 for their stats
Please tell me you don't actually do this.

Rolled 11, 17, 10, 7, 10, 18 = 73 (6d20)

>I don't like point buy systems after playing too many classic Bioware CRPGs. Seeing a fighter with 16 str, 12 dex, 16 con, 10 int, 10 wis, 10 cha for the dozenth time gets tiresome for me.
Try playing a system where the basic assumptions of the game don't favor cookie cutter characters then. It makes more sense than making them roll 6d20.

Hell, I'll demonstrate why that's such a bad fucking idea.

Are you aware of the differences between rolling 3d6 and a d20?

>STR 8

Although SIZ and INT are supposed to be 2D6+6 this is close enough for rock 'n roll. Other than that... ooof. Looks like I'm the handsome, weedy charmer of the party.

Aye will do sirra, but really me thinks you should know about the Waterby farmstead shennanigans that happened last morn.

It came to happen that the little girl daugther of the miller was seing a magic man sirra, he teach her how to read and everyting. Some say she does spells and sorcery sirra, she even has a black cat now.

Anyway rolling a half-elf because I'm a snowflake but not too much of a snowflake.

Rolled 8, 9, 3, 1, 9, 4 = 34 (6d20)

I'm going to be a Half Elf Warlock and I'm going to assign them in this order.

STR: 18 (+1 from H. Elf)
DEX: 10
CON: 12 (+1 from H. Elf)
INT: 7
WIS: 10
CHA: 20 (+2 from H. Elf)

I start off with a saving throw of 15, a spell attack modifier of +7, and I'll have the option to multiclass into Barbarian, Paladin, Sorcerer, or Bard if I really wanted to.

Now let's see what happens if I do it again.

STR 9
DEX 13
CON 6
INT 6
WIS 5
CHA 15

So with this i'm going to say a skilled yet mentally incompetent and asthmatic bard?

Okay, here goes:
Str: 13
Dex: 4
Con: 9
nt: 16
Wis: 7
Cha: 14

Okay, strongish, book smart, and fairly charismatic, but clumsy, and a bit foolish and low endurance.

If we can, wizards apprentice, otherwise, maybe the engineers/accountants guild is hiring?

>Intellect of 1
uh-oh

He said that he let's his players assign as they see fit.
Based off of what I rolled here I decide to be a Half Elf Warlock again.

STR: 10 (+1 from H. Elf)
DEX: 4
CON: 10 (+1 from H. Elf)
INT: 3
WIS: 1
CHA: 10 (+2 from H. Elf

This character on the other hand is unplayable. They have no positive modifiers, half their stats are lower than 5, and their WIS is so low that they barely qualify as a person anymore.

Even in AD&D these stats would be garbage, and that's saying a lot.

I would pretty much have to either scrap the character and reroll or I would only be able to to kill CR-3 enemies for the entirety of game and hope the rest of the party doesn't let me die for being dead weight.

And this is why rolling for stats is shite in modern editions of D&D, one guy can be so powerful that he becomes the main character, another dude can roll so badly that he has to either reroll or scrap the character entirely.

You forgot to explain why 3-18 is better than 1-20

I'll take full Elf, please recommend classes

>You forgot to explain why 3-18 is better than 1-20
It's like comparing a pile of shit to a puddle of vomit. They both stink and I wouldn't touch it with a 49 1/2 ft. pole if given the option.

Rolled 5, 2, 2, 4, 3, 6, 1, 5, 6, 2, 6, 4, 3, 4, 3, 6, 2, 2 = 66 (18d6)

Honestly, be a Druid. Shillelagh is a cantrip in 5e that allows you to
>increase its damage die to a d8
>Add your WIS modifier to attack/damage
>Have it count as a magical weapon (assuming your club/staff isn't already magical) for the purposes of bypassing resistances.
and since it's a cantrip that last 1 minute but doesn't cost a concentration, you can stack another spell on top of it if you really want to.

Maybe dip into the variant ranger for more damage if that's your poison.
